David Silva, Manchester City
Although Lallana has had another good year for the Saints it is still something of a surprise that the 25-year-old was nominated ahead of this excellent Spaniard.
Silva has shown immense consistency since arriving in England back in 2010 and during that time no other player in the Premier League has provided more assists.
This term the 28-year-old has laid on nine goals for teammates and has also scored seven of his own, although the fact the Citizens are third favourites in the title race now may have counted against the playmaker.
